I currently dose the following and it works but I am interested in esv.
Seachem reef builder powder, red sea calcium+, chaetogro, red sea iodine plus (sparingly), and very rarely magnesium (it is being supplemented in chaetogo). I do practically no water changes. I would lose strontium and barium from my dosing if I switched except for the minute amounts in the esv b ionic (I understand that wont raise it at all unless they are very low).
I was curious if you all think it would be worth switching or not. My reason for switching is I would like to have a 2 part that is even as to how much to dose since I can't read calcium tests by myself (I am color blind and only in certain lighting can I see my calcium test) and would prefer to just test alk (meaning test alk weekly but not calcium) with the assumption that the calcium is added in the proper ratio via the 2 part. The only thing that is stopping me from switching is that my tank is doing well right now and I hate messing with it once its working well.
